We were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God


We were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God

1 Cor 6:11

11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

Rom 5:1, 9, 16, 18

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we[a] have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him!

16 Nor can the gift of God be compared with the result of one man’s sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification. 

18 Consequently, just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also one righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)   We were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God
2)   Since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ
3)   We have been justified by the blood of Christ
4)   Christ’s righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people
